Rare Case Report

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMs) are ubiquitous and are being increasingly reported as human opportunistic infection. Cutaneous infection caused by mixed NTM is extremely rare. We encountered the case of a 46-year-old female, who presented with multiple discharging sinuses over the lower anterior abdominal wall (over a previous appendectomy scar) for the past 2 years. Microscopy and culture of the pus discharge were done to isolate and identify the etiological agent. Finally, GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS assay proved it to be a mixed infection caused byMycobacterium szulgaiandM. intermedium. The patient was advised a combination of rifampicin 600 mg once daily, ethambutol 600 mg once daily, and clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily to be taken along with periodic follow-up based upon clinical response as well as microbiological response. We emphasize that infections by NTM must be considered in the etiology of nonhealing wounds or sinuses, especially at postsurgical sites.

Rare Case Report

Pregnancy complicated with Eisenmenger syndrome is associated with high risk to the fetus as well as the mother. There is approximately 50% risk of sudden maternal death, frequently occuring a few days postpartum and the overall fetal wastage is reported to be up to 75%. Patients with Eisenmenger syndrome are advised to refrain from pregnancy or to terminate pregnancy by the end of rst trimester itself. Management of these patients requires a co- ordinated multi-specialist care when such pregnancies reach a stage where safe termination is not advisable. However, in spite of all the risks, a few patients deliver successfully with a good maternal and neonatal outcome. We present 2 cases reported till third trimester and delivered a healthy baby and were subsequently discharged on the 10th postpartum day without any serious complications.

Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT Fibroosseous lesions of the jaws, including juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF), pose diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties due to their clinical, radiological, and histological variability. There are two histological varieties of it, one as psammomatoid type and second as trebacular type; here, we present a trebacular type, which is a rare variety. After the clinical examination, radiological and histological analysis, it was diagnosed as juvenile trebacular ossifying fibroma. Although JOF is an uncommon clinical entity, its aggressive local behavior and high recurrence rate means that it is important to make an early diagnosis, apply the appropriate treatment, and, especially, follow-up the patient over the long term.

AbstractKawasaki disease is a febrile vasculitis affecting young children, which may lead to coronary aneurysms. Echocardiography, although sensitive in detecting coronary aneurysms, has a limited role in diagnosing coronary thrombus. Here we report the case of a 10-year-old boy who presented with typical features of Kawasaki disease with giant coronary aneurysms. His follow-up echocardiogram revealed coronary arterial thrombus.

Aplasia Cutis

Aplasia cutis congenita is an uncommon localized or widespread congenital skin condition characterized by the absence of the skin, and occasionally underlying tissues occurs in about one every 10.000 birth mostly in the scalp as single or more than one lesion and sometimes occurs in extremities and trunk with an uncertain cause and can be associated with numerous syndromes or can be sporadic which is diagnosed clinically and usually conservatively managed but sometimes surgical intervention needed. In this literature, we present nonsyndromic newborn Malay girl normally delivered with 35 weeks gestational age with triplet skin raw areas at the vertex of the scalp with well-demarcated defect round in shape measured about 0.5 in radius covered with a noninflammatory, necrotic patch. To our knowledge, many works of literatures presented Aplasia cutis congenita at the scalp with solitary single or occasionally more than one skin defect. In contrast, in our case, we present an infrequent rare case of triplet skin defect of aplasia cutis congenita for nonsyndromic newborns.
